Emphysema is a disease which weakens and damages the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs. As a result, the surface area of alveoli in our lungs decreases due to which, the body doesn't get sufficient oxygen.
Chronic bronchitis is an inflammation of the airway in the lungs. Smoking can also lead to lung cancer.
A stroke is a medical condition which can be caused by smoking but it's a brain disorder and not a lung disorder.
